White Sage (Salvia apiana) is known for its cleansing and protective properties. The scent of burning white sage clears negative energies, purifies spaces, and promotes healing and spiritual connection.
How to Use White Sage:
- Prepare: Open windows or doors to allow negative energy to exit.
- Light: Ignite the tip of the sage bundle, then blow out the flame, letting the embers smolder and release smoke.
- Smudge: Direct the smoke using a feather or hand, starting with yourself, then moving through the space. Focus on doorways, windows, and corners where stagnant energy may linger.
- Extinguish: Gently press the sage into a fireproof bowl or sand to put it out. Store for future use.
White sage is often used for energy clearing, meditation, or before starting new endeavors to create a positive, peaceful environment.
